| N-arms in safe hands, says Pakistan
ISLAMABAD: Pakistan asserted its nuclear weapons were in safe hands on Tuesday as it test-fired a cruise missile called Hatf 7. This is third time this year that Pakistan has test fired the 700-km range missile, also called Babur, said to be indigenously developed. The missile, which is capable of carrying nuclear weapons, was tested in March, and then in July this year. A military statement said the test-firing was successful and a "part of a continuous process of validating the design parameters" of the missile. The Babur "has near-stealth capabilities, is a low-flying, terrain-hugging missile with high manoeuvrability, pin-point accuracy and radar avoidance features," according to the statement from Inter-Services Public Relations. Chairman Joint Chiefs of Staff Committee, General Tariq Majid, who was present at the test, said Pakistan's nuclear weapons "are very safe and secure." Referring to reports in the U.S.
Like it or not, this oasis has gone big-time
They've come here to escape the northern cold or to leave the earthquakes, fires and insanity of California. And of course, they've come here from south of the border, legally and illegally.
There are Texans here by the tens of thousands and you knew that every time the Cowboys came to Phoenix to play the Cardinals. It was the only game the Cards sold out every year and fans dressed in Dallas jerseys would constitute half the audience.
It's home to John McCain, who might be the next president. Former U.S. Supreme Court justice Sandra Day O'Connor lives here. As do countless professional golfers and other sports figures.
There's no beach, as there is in South Florida, which has hosted the most Super Bowl games. There's no mystique, as there is, or at least was, in New Orleans.

David Beckham to build sports complex, academy in Brazil luxury resort
SAO PAULO, Brazil (AP) -David Beckham will open in Brazil the first "David Beckham World of Sport," a professional sports complex designed and planned with his input. The complex - including eight soccer fields, a 10,000-seat stadium and facilities for golf and tennis among others - will be in a soon-to-be-built luxury resort near the northeastern city of Natal, according to a statement by the Cabo Sao Roque resort on Tuesday. Beckham, who was in Brazil for the announcement, said the facility will incorporate a scholarship program for Brazilian children that will actively outreach to schools in the region, and that the training facilities will be able to accommodate visiting soccer teams and other sports such as American football. "I don't want to teach (Brazilians) to play soccer," Beckham was quoted as saying by the Agencia Estado news service.
Dan Savage Sells His Column (For Charity) This Week
Eric is a computer-security specialist who lives in the SF Bay Area and so, like me, is completely unqualified to advise anyone about anything. And here's his advice for you, NRFTG: "Let me see if I have this right: You're offering your boyfriend what's probably the number-one straight-male fantasy, and he's bitching because it's not spontaneous?" asks Eric, rhetorically.

"That said, seeing as much of the purpose of the exercise is for him to fuck other women, it's hard to see that he has any grounds for complaint on that score.

He is just too far to the left to be elected and once his newness/novelty/persona wears off, he will be exposed as such. Not enough Americans, even after Bush, will vote for someone who the NDP would put up as a candidate. Posted 27/01/08 at 3:24 PM EST | Alert an Editor | Link to Comment .
